You're using a Linux-like software, right? Frankenberg: We are using an open-source software product; it's Free BSD, as opposed to Linux. Free BSD is a particular flavor of the Unix operating system. It does an exceptionally good job. The operating system is distributed for free. Those that write enhancements to it are required to make those available to everyone. This has resulted in a significant amount of innovations and new capabilities. From: http://cbs.marketwatch.com/archive/19991108/news/current/soapbox.htx?source=blq/yhoo&dist=yhoo (Courtesy of /.)
